Hi Denis,
I checked out your branch and compiled it.
My initial impression is that it looks like it is a very nice and useful feature. I have only barely played with it and haven't really given it a solid barrage of tests, but UI-wise I would recommend swapping the End and Start widgets for Angle X/Y. Start should always come before End in the UI. Also, the dialog is uncomfortably wide now... if anything can be done to shrink it down some, I would recommend it. Anyways, great work so far and I will poke around more over the next couple days and give more feedback if I run into anything. Great work!
Cheers, Josh

Hello all,
I wanted to let you know that I've implemented a first working version of the feature that I had proposed (The ability to lay out objects onto an ellipse or circle). You can find the code on launchpad at the following url. https://code.launchpad.net/~declara91/+junk/inkscape-denis I've also precompiled packages for ubuntu in the following ppa: ppa:declara91/inkscape The package name is "inkscape-denis" I would really appreciate if any one of you could check my feature out and give me some feedback or ask me any question.
Some Instructions:
To find the above mentioned arrangement feature goto Object > Arrange... By default the Rectangular grid tab is activated (notice the new Alignment selection widget? :D). Switch to "Polar Coordinates" make a selection, adjust the settings and hit arrange. For any question don't hesitate to ask!
